This post has been overdue for a few weekends now. Currently I am sitting in bed with Brendan next to me, drinking our coffee and just enjoying our Saturday morning. In a few hours we are going to our first rock climbing class which we are so excited about. Another fun, adventurous hobby. Then we might go camping tonight, with our friends Andy and Lexi. It is getting colder here and camping will not always be an option in a few weeks.
Labor day vacation to Michigan was so much fun. We started our trip with a wonderful meal at an Italian restaurant with Brendan's Aunt and Uncle Mike and Laura. They were kind enough to lend us a car to drive up north to Canada Creek. We are so lucky we have such awesome family both in Minnesota and Michigan. I could hardly believe when we arrived up at Canada Creek at midnight that Brendan's grandparents had waited up for us. What a wonderful welcome and how special did we feel! The next morning we just enjoyed everything Canada Creek, swimming in the lake, a hike, driving out to Little Joe and just enjoying it all. We had a great dinner, popped some champagne and just enjoyed. Afterwards we went out with Papa to spot some elk which we found like always.
The next day the weather rained, but sleeping in on a cozy bed and hearing the rain outside was wonderful. After finally getting moving we started our day of eating. It was Papa's idea to go to Mackinac City and enjoy some good meals. We ate lunch at the Rusty Anchor then headed to Mackinac City for some shopping and ice cream. For dinner we went to the Hakmatac, this is the same restaurant we went after we got engaged. Funny enough the picture above is almost the same picture we took three years ago! It was a wonderful trip, Brendan's grandparents and Aunt and Uncle made it so awesome for us both. We are looking forward to some fall activities now and some Utes football!
Love
Brendan and Alyssa
